The process comprising the import of proteins into the mitochondrion from outside the organelle and their insertion into the mitochondrial inner membrane. The translocase of the outer membrane complex mediates the passage of these proteins across the outer membrane, after which they are guided by either of two inner membrane translocase complexes into their final destination in the inner membrane. (Gene Ontology, GO_0045039)
13 genes participating in the protein insertion into mitochondrial inner membrane biological process from the curated GO Biological Process Annotations 2023 dataset.
